Yay...Diana Gets Back Today!!!!

No.....they aren't any better. I just haven't felt like getting the pictures on here right now. I'm so worried about my BS. It's been over 300 (normal is around 100 to 130)and won't go down. The doctor gave me some meds and they weren't doing anything so I called her office on Friday and she started me on another med. So far it's not working either. I go back in on Thursday. She's talked about insulin and as a diabetic that's not something that you really want to go on until it's a last resort.

I thought that I was just having trouble recently but my A1C was 11.1 (that is a three month average of my blood sugars. It's suppose to be around 7.) That's on the high end of the chart and with numbers that high it's doing damage to my body and organs. I took an over the counter A1C test with Glen in Feb. and it was exactly 7. Since a home test can be unrelieable I took another test after I took the one at the doctor's office to see how it compared and it was high too.......a little higher than the doctor's reading. So I think that something has gone wrong since Feb to make my blood sugar high.

I've been on the Atkins diet and have done really well. I know that it helps with my BS but now nothing seems to help. I'm just ready to figure this out. I'm pretty worried about it and Glen's more worried than I am. I hate this getting old!!!!
